A few weeks ago we had a freeze and Lani was driving me to the BART station. There were little blooms of frost on the windshield and as we're pulling out of our parking lot she turns on the windshield wipers. No effect. So, faster than I can shout "NOOOOO!!!!!!" she gives it a spray of wiper fluid.

So funny! My mom tells me {she, who grew up on a hacienda in Mexico} that while she and my father were in Alaska, she walked out one morning to say good-bye to him as he was preparing to leave for work. Seeing him scraping the windshield, she thought she'd be helpful and....
splash a bucket of water on the windshield for him!
Well. You know the end.
I enjoy wearing sweaters over summer clothes. {not on top of, instead of}. I love to wear gloves and I love it a bit nippy. This has been down right freezing!!! I enjoy places where I go and expect the temp to be 30 and below. I do not expect my
house to be one of those places!!!
How cold do you think it was at Magic Mountain?
CoasterMatt, my husband used to always wear shorts and even to the snow. But, today, he froze in them.
